Your rights in relation to the personal data we hold on you

By law, you have rights when it comes to your personal data. Further advice about your rights can be obtained from the data protection regulator in your country.

Rights

What does this mean?

1. The right to be informed

You have the right to be provided with clear, transparent and easily understandable information about how we use your personal data and your rights. Therefore, we are providing you with the information in this Privacy Statement.

2. The right of access

You have the right to obtain access to your personal data (if we are processing it), and certain other personal data (like that provided in this Privacy Statement).

If you would like a copy of information we hold about you, please contact us by any of the means provided at the top of this privacy statement. We will require proof of identity before releasing any information.

3. The right to rectification

You are entitled to have your personal data corrected if it’s inaccurate or incomplete.

4. The right to erasure

This is also known as ‘the right to be forgotten’ and, in simple terms, enables you to request the deletion or removal of your personal data where there is no legal reason for us to keep using it. This is not a general right to erasure; there are exceptions.

5. The right to restrict processing

You have rights to ‘block’ or suppress further use of your personal data. When processing is restricted, we can still store your personal data, but may not use it further.

6. The right to data portability

You have rights to obtain and reuse your personal data for your own purposes across different services. For example, if you decide to switch to a new provider, this enables you to move, copy or transfer your personal data easily between our IT systems and theirs safely and securely, without affecting its usability.

7. The right to object to processing

You have the right to object to certain types of processing, including processing for direct marketing (i.e. if you no longer want to be contacted).

8. The right to lodge a complaint

You have the right to lodge a complaint about the way we handle or process your personal data with your national data protection regulator.

9. The right to withdraw consent

If you have given your consent to anything we do with your personal data, you have the right to withdraw your consent at any time (although if you do so, it does not mean that anything we have done with your personal data with your consent up to that point is unlawful). This includes your right to withdraw consent to us using your personal data for marketing purposes.

Please note that should you exercise your right to request that we erase data or cease any processing activity, we may retain a record of this request and the action taken in order to both evidence our compliance, and to take steps to minimise the prospect of any data being processed in the future should it be received again from a third-party source.

We usually act on requests and provide information free of charge, but may charge a reasonable fee to cover our administrative costs of providing the information for:

baseless or excessive/repeated requests, or

further copies of the same information.

Alternatively, we may be entitled to refuse to act on the request.

Please consider your request responsibly before submitting it. We’ll respond as soon as we can. Generally, this will be within one month from when we receive your request but, if the request is going to take longer to deal with, we’ll come back to you and let you know.

How we may contact you

We may contact you by phone, email, conferencing tools such as Zoom or Skype or through social media. If you have a preference on how you wish to be communicated with, please let us know.

How you can contact us

If you are unhappy with how we’ve handled your information or have further questions on the processing of your personal data, contact info@invisio.ie or call us on +353 45 900 810
